Sipping a MaiTai on the beach on San Marco Island... Florida Keys. 8)

Unfortunately, my body is in Chicago (ish)... which actually seems to be positioned about correctly politically...

Ummm...according to that "map" the South corresponds to Right Libertarianism, which is *quite* different from the theocratic politics that characterize the popular conception of the bible belt.

And exactly how does a "right Libertarian" justify the use of Authoritarian/Aggressive force in leiu of Self Determination?

A libertarian is a person who believes that no one has the right, under any circumstances, to initiate force against another human being for any reason whatever; nor will a libertarian advocate the initiation of force, or delegate it to anyone else.

Those who act consistently with this principle are libertarians, whether they realize it or not.

Those who fail to act consistently with it are not libertarians, regardless of what they may claim.

Looks like you need to be significantly above the Mason Dixon line...

I'm caught in the trap --- I can't walk out, because I love you too much baby...

According to the map, I'd be based in Memphis. Cool man :)

Maybe it's just the AS in me, but My arguments are my beliefs - unless I specifically caviat them as being "devil's advocacy"... and then I almost never do it over the important things like Liberty.

I may take the time to question & them myself, I don't argue with others against my core beliefs, wspecially when the confusion could lead to less Liberty.

EDIT: I Don't know which test you are using as the "default" test, but this is one I just did... which does, in fact, put me about where I figured it would.

My Political Views
I am a far-right social libertarian
Right: 9.59, Libertarian: 9.64

The south bit of Arizona.

I thought I was becoming more right wing, but I've actually got a bit more left-wing since I last took the test! Weird...good, but weird.
